The Illinois Civil Justice League announced its Cook County Circuit Court endorsements in its newsletter this morning.In the race for the Kinnaird vacancy, the ICJL endorses Kevin Cunningham, calling his "thoughts on shrinking frivolous lawsuit filings... insightful and specific."
The ICJL endorsed Gerald V. Cleary for the O'Brien vacancy, citing, in part, Cleary's views "on necessary reforms for judicial selection, including greater transparency in the selection of associate judges."
For the Pucinski vacancy, the ICJL picks Edward J. Maloney, saying has an "impressive resume, is involved in his community, and is immensely qualified to be a judge."
The ICJL took a pass on the race for the O'Mara Frossard vacancy, choosing not to decide between Kevin W. Horan and Diann Karen Marsalek. "Both are worthy candidates," the ICJL stated, "seem to be good judges, and would otherwise have received our support individually," adding that "voters have good choices in this race."
The ICJL's endorsements have been added to the appropriate Organizing the Data posts.
